Big brother, stop it.
Snap——
Li Zhu slapped Gao Cong'ai's hand, pulled up the corner of his clothes and wiped the finger hard.
Gao Cong'ai watched his anxious movements quietly, then held Li Zhu's hand with his backhand: "The temperature has dropped."
Li Zhu pulled his hand away without changing his expression: "Thanks to the medicine you bought."
Gao Cong'ai's crimson lips curved up: "When you had a fever, your face was very red and your eyes were wet. Now you're much better."
"Thanks to the medicine you bought." Li Zhu turned into a repeater
As a human, he couldn't face this face.
My toes haven't relaxed yet.
Gao Cong'ai sighed in disappointment, leaving Li Zhu confused.
He cleared his throat and suddenly realized that the pain in his throat was gone.
I shook my arms and legs again, and they no longer felt sore and I felt stronger.
Lang Feng, who was shocked by Gao Cong'ai's bizarre behavior, didn't have time to condemn him before he saw his brother jumping around happily like crazy.
After much deliberation, I still think my brother is more important.
Lang Feng put his hands on Li Zhu's shoulders, pinning him to the ground. "You're still suffering from a cold, what's wrong with you?"
"I'm fine now." Li Zhu pointed to his throat. "My voice is back to normal, and my headache is gone."
Lang Feng was surprised to find that from some point on, his brother's voice was no longer hoarse.
How could a good person be terminally ill one second and jumping around the next?
Seeing his good brother's surprised look, Li Zhu came to his senses and stood there in a daze, not knowing how to explain.
"The special medicine bought at a high price must be effective." Gao Cong'ai suddenly spoke.
He was covering for me, Li Zhu glanced at him.
"I see." Lang Feng tutted his words. "Even a rich kid like you says it's expensive, so it must be very expensive. It's imported medicine, right? They say on the internet that money can buy health, and it's really true."
Li Zhu breathed a sigh of relief, quickly hooked his arm around Lang Feng's shoulders, and changed the subject: "Let's go to the orphanage."
It's too uncomfortable to feel pain.
Just a minor severe cold can make people feel like they are actually dying.
Shortness of breath, weakness in hands and feet, joint pain, and at the worst, it felt like there was a power drill buzzing in my head.
You have to find a way to cover up the lie afterwards, otherwise you risk being sent to the research institute.
Never buy on credit again!
Gao Cong'ai stopped where he was, his eyes fixed on Li Zhu's hand on Lang Feng's shoulder.
Noticing someone was missing, Li Zhu, who had walked to the platform below, looked up and said, "Mr. Xiao Gao, why aren't you leaving?"
Since they met, Gao Cong'ai either had a blank expression or a smile on his face. This was the first time Li Zhu saw him with a gloomy face.
Perhaps because of his gloomy face, the atmosphere around him also became dull and stagnant.
Li Zhu and Lang Feng leaned against each other unconsciously. Shen Pingfang, who was walking in front, also stopped, feeling inexplicably nervous.
The murderous aura of this young man surnamed Gao when he was dealing with the little hooligans was more frightening than that of the butcher in the morning market slaughterhouse.
The way those two people ran away just now was like a mouse seeing a cat, or a ghost seeing the King of Hell.
Li Zhu looked at Gao Cong'ai as he came down and said, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
Gao Cong'ai: "Your attitude towards me is different from your attitude towards him. I don't like it."
Li Zhu followed his gaze and looked at his arm that was resting on Lang Feng's shoulder.
"The depth of any relationship takes time to build, and that includes friendship," Li Zhu said to him. "Once we've been together for a while, I'll definitely put my arm around your shoulder."
Gao Cong'ai still stared at his arm. "There's an idiom called 'feeling like old friends at first sight', and another idiom called 'love at first sight'. These feelings happen in an instant and have nothing to do with the length of time."
“…” Li Zhu was unable to refute.
This guy has a great mouth.
Not like a otaku who stays at home all day.
Gao Cong'ai continued, "My feelings for you were just a moment."
I treated you as a friend at first sight, but after seeing you for so many times, you still treat me as air. You are not kind, you are too much, you are such a piece of shit... Li Zhu translated silently in his heart.
That seems to be the case.
Gao Cong'ai's emotions are turbulent and fierce, but he is reluctant to express them.
For a young person who longs for friendship, this is a great harm.
Li Zhusheng felt a little guilty: "I'm sorry, I was wrong."
Lang Feng: “???”
No, what's wrong with you?!
Li Zhu let go of Lang Feng and grabbed Gao Cong'ai's arm instead: "Then will you go to the orphanage with us?"
Gao Cong'ai was dissatisfied, and his eyes cut through like a knife.
Li Zhu pursed his lips, compromised, hooked his arm around Gao Cong'ai's shoulders, and repeated what he had said to Lang Feng: "Let's go to the orphanage."
"Okay." Gao Cong'ai finally spoke, and the gloom on his face disappeared.
Li Zhu: “…”
Lang Feng followed alone with empty shoulders.
He had a premonition deep down that his brother was going to be snatched away.
The little gangster lived in the middle of the village on the edge of the city. Shen Pingfang was going to the wholesale market in the city to buy some new bowls and chopsticks.
Before leaving, she thanked the three of them again.
Li Zhu waved his hands and said loudly and impatiently, "Thank you for nothing. I've heard you so many times that my ears are callused."
If this had happened in the past, Shen Pingfang would have scolded him long ago.
Now I realize that Xu Xiaozhe's tough talk was just a cover for his inner awkwardness and shyness.
She smiled, waved to the three of them and left.
Lang Feng looked at her back and muttered, "Actually, Sister Shen isn't that annoying."
——
The orphanage is on the other side of the city and requires two bus transfers.
Li Zhu took his two younger brothers through the village on the edge of the city and walked to the platform to wait for the bus.
The glaring sunlight above our heads bakes the earth, and the chirping of cicadas makes people feel restless.
Lang Feng scratched his ears and complained, "They keep saying death all day long, but they won't die. The noise never stops."
Li Zhu didn't say anything, took out his cell phone to play, and glanced at Gao Cong'ai, and found that he was standing straight with his hands in his pockets.
He raised his eyes curiously and looked at the other person.
"Don't stare at me all the time." Li Zhu pretended not to care. "When you're young, play with your phone more. When you're old, you'll have to wear reading glasses to see. That's troublesome."
Lang Feng is also a cell phone addict, and he echoed: "That's right."
Gao Cong'ai squatted down next to Li Zhu and said, "Mobile phones are boring."
For him, looking at the phone is not as interesting as observing Li Zhulai.
Li Zhu had no choice but to slide his fingers up and down the screen.
Fortunately, the bus arrived quickly and Li Zhu was the first to get on the bus and sat in the last row by the window.
Lang Feng was originally the second to go up, but Gao Cong'ai pulled him down and he fell to third place. He said to the driver, "He'll pay."
Lang Feng: “…”
After paying the fare twice, he caught up with Gao Cong'ai and asked, "You don't have any money?"
Gao Cong'ai: "Yes, but I won't pay"
No wonder I have to walk from the city to the suburbs.
Li Zhu looked at Gao Cong'ai's injured foot, which was now tucked into the original owner's old sneakers.
Because it was a little short, the toe of the shoe was pushed out by my thumb, leaving a small bulge.
There was a rustling sound beside him. Gao Cong'ai seemed to be sitting awkwardly in his seat. He was afraid of squeezing Li Zhu, so he tried to hunch his broad shoulders.
Li Zhu couldn't bear it: "You can sit closer."
Gao Cong'ai: "Okay."
The man's tense shoulders relaxed, his legs slightly apart, and his right knee pressed against Li Zhu's.
The warmth belonging to another person came over. Li Zhu moved his legs, and in less than three seconds, the leg came over again.
Li Zhu gave up and moved directly out of the car.
Gao Cong'ai was satisfied. He turned his head and said without hesitation, "I don't like you calling me Mr. Xiao Gao."
Li Zhu thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll call you by your name from now on."
"Yeah." Gao Cong'ai replied softly.
Glancing at him and seeing him smiling again, Li Zhu thought helplessly, it's just a name, he's too easily satisfied.
People on the Internet say that Gao Cong'ai is a madman and a psychopath.
Li Zhu saw the other side.
Which one is the real him?
The bus wobbled towards the city and stopped at the transfer point in the city center.
"Brother, look."
As soon as they got out of the car, Lang Feng grabbed Li Zhu's sleeve, pointed across the street and said, "Isn't that Mr. Gao's company?"
Behind the two towering buildings stands a steel monster with the bright red name of the group on top.
——Gaoge Group.
Lang Feng sighed, "That building is too tall. The Gao family must be very rich."
Gao Cong'ai acted as if he didn't see it, his eyes fixed on the ground.
Li Zhu said to Lang Feng, "Don't push me, just look at your feet."
Just as he finished speaking, Lang Feng missed a step and almost fell flat on his face.
There was a big supermarket nearby. The three of them went in and bought a lot of things. When they came out carrying large and small bags, the bus arrived just in time.
——
There are many areas near the orphanage that are waiting to be developed. There are large areas of lush green grassland, and the bus stops here.
Li Zhu shielded his eyes from the sunlight with his hands and looked at the stained iron gate a few dozen meters away.
This place holds the entire past eighteen years of the original owner and Lang Feng's life.
It was playtime in the orphanage, and many children were playing and frolicking in the open space outside.
Someone with sharp eyes saw the person walking through the door and shouted excitedly: "Brother Xiaozhe! Brother Xiaofeng!"
All the children responded immediately, looking over and rushing towards the two with open arms.
The original owner was not bad-tempered to everyone.
He gave all his remaining patience and gentleness to these children.
Seeing the children getting closer and closer to him, Li Zhuzheng quickly compared the faces in front of him with his memory one by one.
"Xiaoting." He picked up the smallest one and weighed her. "Oh, the little girl is heavier than last month."
Xiaoting held Li Zhu's head with her chubby hands and kissed him on the forehead.
She said in a baby voice, "Brother Xiaozhe, we miss you so much."
[Positive value +1, if my brother doesn't come, no one will buy candy.]
A little boy with a melon-shaped haircut hugged Li Zhu's legs tightly and tilted his head back and said, "Brother, brother, did you buy me some popping candy?"
Li Zhu put Xiao Ting down and picked up this one again: "I bought it, I bought it. It's a long string."
[Positive value +1, hehe, that's great, I'm going to eat this in bed tonight!]
Li Zhu tasted the sweetness, put down the melon-rind head, and immediately picked up the next one to coax him.
The system found it troublesome to keep broadcasting text, so it started voice broadcasting.
365: "Positive value +1, positive value +1, positive value +1..."
Add more for free.
Li Zhu happily hugged the child and spun around in circles, feeling so happy.
Lang Feng was also unable to escape, and he enjoyed the children's enthusiasm in a painful and happy way.
Only Gao Cong'ai stood alone aside.
He looked at the hands that were clinging to Li Zhu, and the jealousy in his heart was like overflowing water, surging out and unable to be taken back.
